Water For Wildlife & Wetlands ...
Alberta's irrigation facilities are a natural attraction for wildlife. More than 250 species of birds can be viewed over the year at the Kinbrook Marsh just south of Brooks, Alberta.
Partnerships with conservation organizations, such as Ducks Unlimited, have been in effect for more than 50 years. Recent initiatives, such as Partners in Habitat Development, are assisting land owners and irrigators in managing portions of their land as improved habitat.
